rants, raves and faves of a gen x-er black chick

Ahhh Autumn..That time of year when the studios break out their Oscar-contending films. I saw my first of the buzz-worthy fare last night – PT Anderson’s The Master, a gripping character study allegedly loosely based on the early days of a very controversial modern religion. For those of you suffering from comic book movie fatigue, this film will not disappoint. Stunning performances by Amy Adams, Phillip Seymour Hoffman and Joaquin Phoenix. The alternative titles will clue you in to The Master’s tone.
